How can I resolve this? This is my second Add collection activity in my sequence does this affect it?

So do I need to add new to ‘item.ToString’ in the assign activity?

4

you need to initialize the collection before using it

5

Have I not done that by doing the ‘assign’ activity?

6

Above add to collection use assign activity
Matchvalue2=New System.Collections.Generic.List(of String)

7

Is this true even for ‘System.Collections.Generic.ICollection<System.String’ variable? Including the assign activity for MatchValue2 works but only gives me the last item in the For Eeach loop

8

you need to add another foreach loop after add to collection

You have to keep in mind following things.

  1. Initialize your collection.
  2. Add item to your collection and provide type of arguments you are adding.
  3. To get each item in collection, use for each and provide arguments type.

PFB SS for better understanding .

hello katie , in the variables panel you should initialize the list by setting default to “New List(Of String)” so you can be able to assign value to it on the assign activity.
tell me if it worked
